News in brief: S&P downgrades Glencore debt

Standard & Poor's has downgraded the credit rating of Glencore International to just one notch above junk status, barely two months after the Swiss privately owned commodities company launched a debut benchmark Eurobond.

Glencore launched its inaugural Eurobond in September via lead managers ABN Amro, Barclays Capital and JP Morgan.
